My Hunqapillar has barend shifters, and I really like them, except when I knock them against the doorframe getting the bike in and out of the garage. When I built up my Atlantis this fall, I went with downtube shifters mostly because of cost-containment. I like the clean lines, and I like how it mitigates my natural tendency to shift too often. But, that's ALL I like. The reach is just too much for me to feel comfortable with, and bar ends are going on in the spring. I like the look of downtube shifters, and the simplicity. The experience? Not so much.
